Extensions for advertising activities are a separate group of unwanted software, called adware and hijackers. Adware attack the entire system, showing you banners and other promotional info in the browser and on the desktop. The second kind acts exclusively in the browsers by manipulating the results of your searches, showing improper output and redirecting you to malicious web-sites.

Thereafter malicious software starts to switch the settings of browsers. When the pre-set search engine and the home-page are changed, you'll always see the dangerous website in every browser and on each tab. Then, dangerous program varies the browser controls, responsible for ads. Most browsers now have a function which allows to hide the pop-ups, banners, intrusive advertising and other sorts of hype. Hijacker turns these services off, and you see that the amount of ads in all new tabs is dramatically high. In addition, to that the quantity of advertising has grown up notably, its quality has decreased. If Videostalking.com dwells on the machine for a long time, customer simply can't surf the Internet because of redirections, ads and pop-ups in all browsers and sometimes even to turn on the machine.

Advantages of different removal methods

How to protect the computer?

To prevent such issues, you have to know for sure in which way Videostalking.com got on your system. This can happen through three main techniques:

Infection through a malicious website. There are web-sites that propagate the adware and they don't even try to hide it. Such programs have the limited list of advantages: search for advantageous discounts on the Web, showing the newest free media-content such as music, movies and games, the acceleration of Net surfing, automated download of all updates and drivers for your hardware, the realization of some actions in the social networks. All of these features are already built into the browsers, or is in the OS tools list, so, it means that these tools are absolutely futile, and the website that disseminates them is, most likely, unsafe.

Download in the package with free tools. Literally every unpaid program proposes you to get something except the tool that you need. You install the software, and in one of the windows you see the proposal of the installation of the browser, the new toolbar for it, brilliant file manager, special software, and, maybe, a pair of different strange, but very "efficient" tools. The installation is already verified, and as soon as you click "OK", the installation starts, and you’ll earn few programs that you do not need, besides the one that you would like to have.

The straight installation by user. It is highly possible, because when some users see an attractive specification of software, they believe that it is highly efficient.

The penetration via viral e-mail attachment is also highly efficient, but this technique is used most of the cases by ransomware and viruses, and not by adware. If you read this paragraph, we suppose, that hijacker is gone for good. If you prefer the by-hand deletion, you have to know how to understand that your PC has a virus.

Slow boot of OS. The processes that run at startup are, most often, the reason of tardy boot. At the taskbar you can see all currently working tools, and decide which are reliable and which are not.

Appearance of advertisement in on every site. If the quantity of hype increased notably - this is, most likely, adware or hijacker.

Critical errors while using tools, shutdown or restart of a laptop without the user's resolution.

The emergence of the suspicious programs on the PC. If the program appears in the system without your permit - it is, most likely, unwanted.

Each of these symptoms informs about the virus threat, and if you react in time - you will prevent the damage. Be careful on the Web, track the status of your machine, and it will always be fast and efficient.
